Salute to Korean communists

COMRADES and friends met to celebrate the
72nd Anniversary of the Workers’ Party of Korea at a Friends of Korea meeting
at the John Buckle Centre in south London on Monday.

Song Gi Kim from the
Democratic Korean embassy in London, Michael Chant from the RCPB(ML) and Dermot
Hudson from the Korean Friendship Association all spoke about the historic role
of the Korean communist movement in the liberation struggle against Japanese
colonial rule, and the subsequent battles to defeat American imperialism and
build the modern socialist republic of today.

The Co-ordinating
Committee of the Friends of Korea brings together all the major movements
active in Korean friendship and solidarity work in Britain today. It is chaired
by Andy Brooks and the secretary is Michael Chant. The committee organises
meetings throughout the year, which are publicised by the supporting movements
and on the Friends of Korea website.
